This one's for Pinky :o)

On my Met Monday post, Pinky, a great friend from RMS, commented that she loved the makeover of the dining room, but was wishing that I had pictures of the tablesetting and was straining trying to see it . Well, here it is, especially for YOU....Pinky, with love:

These beachy dishes was a lucky buy it a consignment store the day before I went to Charleston, to do my makerover. Hmmmmm.. I might just have to "borrow" then next time I visit. ;)

I saw this makeover on MM and thought it was just beautiful -- I do love love love that paint color -- this is just perfectly beachy and I know that you're just loving it! I'll bet everything tastes better in such a lovely setting.

Beautiful all the way !!i so love the sun mirror...very elegant...i'm sorry you have to postpone your trip...but on the other hand it's so hot, it might be worth while to come in spring..Have a great creative week !:-)

OMG!!!! I am so HONORED!!!! Thanks so much for sharing this GORGEOUS table! The napkin rings are genius! I am posting a beach table next week too! Thanks again, Rose. Love the dishes, centerpiece...everything!!!!!!!!!!! Hugs, Pinky:)

Oh, Rose, this is beautiful! I'm so glad Pinky asked to see your table. Now I know this is all beachy and everything, but when I first looked at it ~ I saw wintry - whites and the the pale blue of icicles. I know I'm a silly, but with a few exchanges this could be a scrumptious wintry scene too. Everything you do is beautiful.Be a sweetie,Shelia ;)

Love those dishes & all the shells! But, as I have told you in posts past... I am into the beach/shell theme BIG TIME right now. These dishes are great. Differnet than my new shell dishes from Marshalls.

Just wanted to stop by after reading the sweet, sweet note that you left for me...thank you so much for coming by and thank you for the birthday and blog well wishes...you just made my day with your sweet note!!! This blogging journey has been quite an experience...hasn't it? And to think that so many of us first met and got our start on RMS! That's been awhile ago! It's been such a pleasure getting to know you, Rose!!! And...I always loving coming to your place for a visit...your home is soooo beautiful and you're such a creative and talented lady!!! You have inspired me sooooo many times, my friend!!!

Girl, I just love this dining room makeover! You said that your daughters live here while going to school? Those lucky, lucky girls!!! I looked through your Met Monday post so I could see the total transformation...OMG!!!...this room is absolutely stunning!!! What a change...it doesn't even look like the same room! I love that gorgeous blue wall color...it makes me want to go and paint a room at my place...it's that pretty!!! Love the new dining table and chairs and Ohhhh my...you really did an outstanding job with making that sofa table into a buffet table!!! Girl, using those wooden feet was genius...I just love it!!! Ohhh...and all of your decor projects...so creative and so very beautiful! Love that big silver mirror...it really is the focal point of the room and so gorgeous! And I love all the frames with the ribbon and shells...Girl, where did you come up with that idea...it's fabulous! You know...another little thing that really caught my eye and that I just love...are the strands of shells that you wrapped around the lamps...so, so pretty! It really IS in the details! Now that beautiful tablescape is like the icing on the cake...so sweet! Love those shell dishes!!! Thank you so much for sharing this fabulous dining room makeover with all of us...I bet your girls are just ecstatic!!!

Well my friend, I wish you the best in my book giveaway and thank you again for all of your sweet well wishes...

Hi me again, Thanks so much for stopping by.... How did you get both your gils to go to the same school at the same time? Are the girls twins? M.U.S.C. is a great school...Are they both going to be Dentist? SSSHHHH I will let you in on a little secert that I have not let out in blogville yet... My husband went to M.U.S.C. College of Dental Medicine. His practice is in Summerville about 30 miles from our home. Top of his class, #3out of a class og 48.Not one of our girls wanted to go to M.U.S.C., Our 15yr old daughter is thinking about it , but maybe Clemson for their Engineer program. Is your husband a Dentist?

Rose, that looks beautiful! You could link this to two events this week. Tomorrow Cuisine Kathleen is doing the White and one color tablescape event, and Wednesday The Shabby Chic Cottage is doing beach tablescapes. As always, your color combintation is so perfect. laurie

This is such a lovely dining room and that tablescape is gorgeous. I need to copy it. I live an hour from the beach in a farmhouse, with hundreds of chickens...hence we have farmhouse style. BUT and it is a big BUT I would love my dining room to look like this! You have done a gorgeous job on decorating this area. Can't wait to see what else you do.Blessings,Debbie

I am enjoying all the beach parties! And so glad to find your here. I noticed that you have two girls (and I agree, they are gorgeous) in dental school! We do too! How fun is that? We'll see if our son will follow...he's thinking medical, right now :o)

Blessings & Aloha... I'd love to have you take a peek at my beach party... & please let me know that you were there with a comment.

Beautiful post...as always. Thanks for stopping by the chair post. Another one down...too many to go.I hate to say this but I get my fabric from a woman at our local flea market. She's sort of hit and miss. It's great when she restocks, but sometimes she gets busy and the same stuff is there every Wednesday. I don't know what I'd do without her. I wish everyone could shop there.Kelly

Ah! I thought I remembered reading you werer from here. But now you're in Atlanta, right. Well, she's at the US 1. Not the Barnyard. Wed. 8 to 12 and weekends. She said some of her sources are moving to China. Hope not. She's been there for 20 years. Every now and then she has really GOOD, expensive fabric.($4.00) But not unless she re-stocks. You never went to her? My kitchen drape fabric is at Hancock right now for $30.00. I was excited when I saw she had that one .Small world.:) Kelly

Hi darling, I'm finally getting around to everyone.. "major" computer problems, any hoo... This is just too gorgeous for words.. so classy and elegant. I watched Design Star last week I was sorry to see the girl go.. this week should be interesting. I would be hard pressed to watch a designer on t.v. every week with all those tatoos.. what do you think? Hope you're having a super Saturday..hugs ~lynne~
